You must use a special Avios link to trigger the double points, largely redeemable on British Airways or Iberia flights.

It doesn't matter when you activate the offer this month. As long as it's before the end of July, you'll get double points throughout the bonus period.

The Lloyds TSB Avios Duo package comes with an Amex and a Mastercard but the double points offer is only on the Amex, which is the better card to use anyway (where it's accepted). With it, you get one point for each pound (two during the offer period), compared to one point per £5 on the Mastercard.

The extra points will be added to Lloyds TSB credit card statements on 30 September, before being transferred to Avios accounts.

Customers with a Premier version of the card will also get double the usual 1.25 points per pound spent on their Amex during the same period, to get 2.5 points. They must activate their offer on the special Premier Avios link.

You won't collect points on cash withdrawals, transfers or on gambling transactions.

How this site works

We think it's important you understand the strengths and limitations of the site. We're a journalistic website and aim to provide the best MoneySaving guides, tips, tools and techniques, but can't guarantee to be perfect, so do note you use the information at your own risk and we can't accept liability if things go wrong.

This info does not constitute financial advice, always do your own research on top to ensure it's right for your specific circumstances and remember we focus on rates not service.

Do note, while we always aim to give you accurate product info at the point of publication, unfortunately price and terms of products and deals can always be changed by the provider afterwards, so double check first.

We don't as a general policy investigate the solvency of companies mentioned (how likely they are to go bust), but there is a risk any company can struggle and it's rarely made public until it's too late (see the Section 75 guide for protection tips).

We often link to other websites, but we can't be responsible for their content.

Always remember anyone can post on the MSE forums, so it can be very different from our opinion.

MoneySavingExpert.com is part of the MoneySupermarket Group, but is entirely editorially independent. Its stance of putting consumers first is protected and enshrined in the legally-binding MSE Editorial Code.
